Every year I try to make it a point to sit in and observe different programs from various Universities around the country. One year I was able to observe both both schools (still have the same S&C coaches) and I personally thought that ND had the better strength program. Seemed both coaches had different training philosophies, both very good in their own right, but I personally liked the intensity, organization and completeness of ND's program, plus their athletes were strong as hell!!
